To listen to Spotify offline, you need to be a Spotify Premium subscriber. Here's how you can do it:
- Download Music:
- Add your favorite songs to a playlist (individual songs can't be downloaded separately).
- Tap the download button (downward arrow) on the playlist to download all songs in it to your device.
- Enable Offline Mode:
On Mobile:
- Open the Spotify app.
- Go to Settings (gear icon).
- Under Playback, toggle on "Offline Mode".
On Desktop:
- Open the Spotify desktop app.
- Click the "..." icon in the top-left corner.
- Go to File > Offline Mode to enable it.
Once you're in Offline Mode, you can listen to all your downloaded playlists without an internet connection. Note that downloaded content disappears if you don't log in at least once every 30 days. Podcasts can be downloaded and listened to offline on both free and Premium accounts, but music offline listening is only available for Premium users. This feature works on mobile, desktop, and devices like Apple Watch if you download content directly on the device. If you want to listen offline without Premium, there are some third- party options and local file workarounds, but these may have risks or limitations. In summary, Spotify Offline listening involves downloading playlists and enabling Offline Mode in settings, available for Spotify Premium subscribers.
